For the next 2-3 weeks, traffic will be detoured around the cleanup operation on Route 28 between Sanborn and Page roads, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., weather permitting.

“The nature of the product – gasoline having such a low flashpoint of -45 degrees, even in the winter – there's always a hazard present,” Roger said.

The state determined quick containment kept fuel from waterways, and the air is being monitored.

First responders said people living, working or driving through the area are safe.

“Once the work is completed during the day, it’s covered back up with non-contaminated soil, and then it's covered with a plastic vapor barrier before the crews leave,” Roger said. “They test the air with monitors to ensure safety.”

The Londonderry Fire Department said insurance for the company at fault will pay the cost of cleanup, which is expected to be more than $1 million.
